NEWSLETTER Q3 Review - 2017

November, 2017

Welcome to our quarterly newsletter!

A big thank you to our Q3 top contributors!

There are so many people that contribute information to us in order to help improve our code, products and projects. We want to make sure that our top contributors are being recognized for the help they give and that they know how much we appreciate them.

NEW RELEASES - Open source versions

Good news!

We've decided to make our iText 7 add-ons pdfHTML, pdfSweep, pdfInvoice and pdfDebug open source under the AGPL license - as was already in place for iText 7 Community.

We believe there's a lot of value in this for you in general. You’ll be able to develop proof of concepts and projects more quickly, by having the source code available to inspect in case you find an error.

NEW E-BOOK!
